"This is their debut and it remains their best. Some think Zombie and Ode to My Family are their best songs and made the 2nd album more appreciable. For me, they're lesser songs compared to Dreams and Linger, and the topmost factor is that the 1st album has more better songs and fewer average song..." [More]

"The Rolling Stones is my farorite band of all time. I have been looking to find the album on vinyl. Their Satanic Majesties Request is one of their best albums if not their best."

"The title is what it is -- garage music, possibly the greatest ever -- sloppiness and simplicity embraced as virtues. If you can handle raw, melodic anthems by people who love their work and can barely play their instruments (yet play them with more feeling than almost any pros), this will astoun..." [More]

"This is rapidly becoming one of my all time favorite albums. It's filled to the brim w/ gems. If you're down on your luck, this album has a unique way of lifting spirits. "The Pian0 Has Been Drinking" has got to one of the funniest karaoke songs all time. See also: "Step Right Up", "Bad Liver & A..." [More]

"This is a record that grows on you, and once it does.. wow. This is where you can see the true genius of Prince. Here he is in his prime, howling, screaming, and hitting falsetto in the same 5 second span. Sex personified on a few tracks. It's not his best work, but after a couple listens this we..." [More]

"This is a decent album, it really is. Yet, I just don't see the appeal. If someone could explain it to me, I would genuinely appreciate that. To me, there's a lot of sameness, and a lot of so-so songwriting. I'm listening to this album more and more, and I'm starting to see it, but I still feel l..." [More]

"This was my first experience of listening Yes. So it was a wonderful experience. The first side is full of great tracks. The second side not quite as strong although it ends very well with Hearts. What a comeback. Still I can understand why this may have annoyed many Yes fans - it really isn't Yes!"

"The pastoral Van's album. Irish like the Guinness, country, rain...... and "The Quiet Man". Great vocals, great songs. Lyrics are full of images, impressions and strongs shots. An underrated and extraordinary record."
